Christmas party drinks can make or break your holiday shindig. Go big this December! We’re going to help you do it, in easy, breezy fashion. Whether you’re throwing an office party or an ugly sweater contest, we’re here to assist with the merry drink menu.

We’ll give you the scoop (or the “pour,” we should say) on the liquor you’ll need for your Christmas festivities. Keep reading to dive into whiskey, vodka, tequila, rum, gin, and brandy. We’ll keep things pretty simple here with four ingredients or fewer! After all, the important part is that you’re able to enjoy yourself, too. And highlight the liquor, of course.

The 6 Christmas Party Drinks They’ll Love

1. Cinnamon Maple Whiskey Sour

We dig Cookie + Kate’s Christmas party drinks right here! Kathryne Taylor is a vegetarian who knows how to drink, and her love for her dog, Cookie, is a bonus. This cocktail is super easy and perfect for your holiday event–especially if you’re running the bar and trying to socialize at the same time. You’ll need three main ingredients: bourbon of your choice, fresh lemon, maple syrup, and ground cinnamon (optional). That’s it! Best of all, you can add extra to your shaker and make multiple drinks at once!

2. White Christmas Dream

Give your guests a winter wonderland–an edible snow globe, if you will! All you’ll need is vodka, amaretto liqueur, heavy cream, and nutmeg. The Spruce tell us it’s great after a meal and perfect for a nightcap.
